found: Wikipedia, 16 December 2013:Isle of Ely (Isle of Ely; a historic region around the city of Ely now in Cambridgeshire, England, but previously a county in its own right; until the 17th century, the area was an island surrounded by a large area of fenland; from 1107 until 1837 the Isle was under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Ely, who appointed a Chief Justice of Ely and exercised temporal powers within the Liberty of Ely; in 1107, created as a county palatine under the bishop; an act of parliament in 1535/6 ended the palatine status of the Isle; the Liberty of Ely Act 1837 ended the bishop's secular powers in the Isle, and the area was declared a division of Cambridgeshire; the Isle of Ely was constituted a separate administrative county in 1889, which survived until 1965; following the recommendations of the Local Government Commission for England, on 1 April 1965 the bulk of the area was merged to form Cambridgeshire and Isle of Ely, with the Thorney Rural District going to Huntingdon and Peterborough) Cambridgeshire (modern Cambridgeshire was formed from the historic counties of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire, together with the Isle of Ely and the Soke of Peterborough; covers a large part of East Anglia; in 1888 when county councils were introduced, separate councils were set up, following the traditional division of Cambridgeshire, for the area in the south around Cambridge, and the liberty of the Isle of Ely; in 1965, these two administrative counties were merged to form Cambridgeshire and the Isle of Ely; under the Local Government Act 1972, this merged with the county to the west, Huntingdon and Peterborough; the resulting county was called simply Cambridgeshire)
